Bangi Haze

[lemonade]

Wasn't sure where to post this but I love BH so I thought this would be an appropriate spot.

Anyhow heres my 4 OD ACE plants! In the first pic the top plant is PCK x China #1, middle right is PCK x Malawi, mid left is PCK x China #2, and bottom is my fave. Bangi Haze! The other 2 pics are the Bangi as well! This pheno of Bangi Haze is an absolute hog for nutes and has a cool stem network! Assisted by pinching and some light LST of course hehe.

This Bangi has been getting double strength food at 2400 ppm (.5 conversion) and just seems to want more thought I don't want to over do it. Of course different cultivars have different pigments and so, side by side to other varieties I think this plant just naturally has a more yellow/neon look, but it certainly loves nutes!

This is only my second time growing it, fist time around (indoors) it looked pale and somewhat sickly at 1200 ppm while the rest of the crop seemed maxed at that strength of food.

The yellowing of leaves eventually went into the bud which I really dislike. Loved the finished product however. Anyhow this time around I figured I’d try and pre load her with more nutes/N before flower. Then drop things down a bit, then peak strength in mid bloom.

They’re juuuuust starting to bloom now, at 49 degrees N.

Unfortunately I have to have to move them around so i’ve kept them in 6 gal pots. Keeps em manageable!

Thanks @dubi and crew!

Man your plants look about as healthy as I have ever seen! Do you make your own soil/blends? I saw the composter near your plants. How do you keep them so happy outside in such small containers? Don't they dry out quickly? How do you keep them so uniformly green? Keep it up man its working.

Here's some Bangi Haze, Malawi, Malawi x PCK, Killer A5, Super Malawi Haze, and PCK x Kali China.

Damn you are organized man! Looks like conveyer belt type operation, just like Ford had with the model T's. Man I pray someday I dial it in like you. Bravo.

Bangi Haze guerilla grow. Hasn't rained all grow season so I've been watering 3 times a week. She's doing well as long as I get to her with the water.

Thanks man. I do make my own soil and I absolutely love my composter! Id have a bigger one if I had the space. This year i just used lots of homemade compost, peat moss, perlite, cpl types of manure, EWC, guano, native soil from a cpl diff spots, re-used indoor soil, and composted wood chips. I experiment with different blends all the time!

Those pots certainly do dry out fast in the sun, but my back appreciates it!

I also added a cpl inches of mulch/composted wood chips on top which has been promptly colonized by fuzzy roots.

Thanks for your kind words of encouragement.

@Azure, looking very nice! I used to rock the powerline grows myself.

Yea so does mine. Been feeding lightly. Maybe I should

bump it up a bit?

Hey there @dillycid, awesome looking plants! How tall are those things?

Hard to say without being there and knowing all the factors involved, but I personally think they could use a bit more food! I would just ramp it up slowly and see how they respond. Yours are certainly ahead of mine though thats for sure!

From the looks of things yours are a well into bud, so now would be the time to increase strength of fertigation, if thats what you decide.

A while back I posted a picture of a plant in a 5x5x10 scrog. Well, she outgrew that about 6 weeks ago. So we had to build a 10x10x8 tent around her, and re scrogged her out. The top pics are from scrog day. And then more recent pics (couple of weeks ago).

 

[Koondense]

That's impressive, great job
Will you keep the roots in the same container until the end, or planning to add some volume?

Cheers

 

[lemonade]

Wow @Glorn2 thats one heck of a plant! And that stem heheh. Your cat certainly seems to be diggin’ it.

How does she smell?

 

[Glorn2]

We are in a 40 gallon tote, and won't be transplanting. Next year I will be going with a 100 gallon, I thought 40 would be enough. Using a variation of subcools super soil recipe, and I've top dressed nutrients twice. Havent had any issues with it, other than watering, due to how rootbound she is.

That's the neighborhood cat, I don't think anyone owns it, but she keeps guard over our Bangi! Still smells green, this is our 4th grow of this pheno. She transitions into flower incredibly slowly, then stall out... It isn't until week 8 that the flowers ever start really growing. But they grow really fast, and is a 14-16 week flower, so they are huge by the end. From our last grows, the scent is actually pretty mild. The trichomes are tiny, but abundant. Compared to the 10-11 week pheno we have also grown a few rounds of, it is a very "inner thoughts" kind of high, instead of a high energy focus. Still focused, but you are focused on whatever you are thinking about, and trying to consider everything about every aspect of the thought. Very interesting!

10 weeks here, scoped her trichs and im seeing way more milk than I expected- hard to capture with camera but she is stacked- interesting *witch hat pheno i saw a few posted similar before. Also very interesting is the last pic of a lower bud that was heavily shaded throughout the grow. Perhaps shes more delicate and likes less light. Both my bangi haze are fading out very quickly especially seeing how i just started them in on the flush. I might take this one tomorrow regardless, the trichomes say go.

 

[chronosync]

Other bangi pheno - trichs are still mostly clear on this one, just a few days on plain water in coco - 10 weeks

Hey there @dillycid, awesome looking plants! How tall are those things?

She's 7 and a couple inches. Started her under LED late March and transplanted in to 40 gal. fabric topping her at the 6th node and removing the lowest 2 nodes (4 branches). So 8 branches that started blooming 4 Aug. Looks like 18 inch colas are taking form! She'll be done about mid Oct. This is my third year growing Bangi Haze and I recommend it. Well done Dubi!

Bangi out in the wild with a tri-pod support. Starting to get a pleasant scent.
Pollinated a few branches with Indian Landrace's Kandahar Black.

Nice! Yea I pollinated 2 branches on my BH with Guawi. My 1st time trying to make seeds and a lot more of the plant is making seed than the 2 branches. Pollen is amazing and next time I need to be more careful. How do you do it (pollinate) outdoors?

I put pollen in a small plastic vial, dip a toothpick in vial and then dab the areas I want to seed.

I did the same but used my index finger! A toothpick it is next time.

Indoors I turn off the fan, wait an hour of two, spray the plants down, and then turn the fan back on again. Can't really do that outdoors but maybe doing it on a day with little wind and doing the spraydown could still work. I use a small paintbrush mainly, also used Q-tips sometimes.

We used to find big packs (like classroom packs) of small watercolor brushes, for pollinations. They work awesome, and can be labelled and stored for future use.
